This is the third 21c Museum hotel I have been. I expected better from Chicago, but I was disappointed. The staff was polite at times, but also gaslighted me when I requested a wakeup call that I never received. This happened both nights I stayed there which leads me to believe that this system was never in place. Despite being a platinum member, I never received an upgrade. I think I am cool on the 21c hotels chain for now.

Consider Location
I asked for a hypoallergenic room and the staff did a fantastic job with this request; synthetic aromas were nonexistent. I super appreciated this. This hotel is close to the Magnificent Mile, so there are lots of sirens throughout the night. You might want to consider this if you're a light sleeper.
